Aging and health challenges can affect a client's financial plan. When that begins to happen, we are here to provide professional insight into evolving care needs and the services and levels of support that may be required.
A change in health or independence can quickly raise questions that aren't purely financial:
An Aging Life Care Manager from our team evaluates current and future care needs, living environment, gaps in the support system, health, safety, and quality of life.
Your client's care manager helps identify, arrange, and coordinate appropriate care providers, services, and resources.
We provide ongoing oversight as health, independence, and care needs change.
You remain the financial advisor. We provide the care management expertise that helps clients and their trusted professionals understand the care needs those financial resources may need to support.
Consider involving Caring with Grace when a client begins experiencing significant changes in health, cognition, independence, living arrangements, caregiver support, or other circumstances that may affect their existing financial plan.
When you have financial or fiduciary responsibility but are not involved in a beneficiary's day-to-day life, it can be difficult to understand how circumstances are changing. Caring with Grace provides professional care management and a local presence that brings greater visibility to the client's needs and circumstances.
Ways we can support your work:
A professional, personalized evaluation of health, safety, function, living environment, support systems, and quality-of-life needs.
Communication and coordination among care providers, physicians, family members, and other professionals when authorized, including advice on care decisions such as a move to a different level of care.
Personal, compassionate service focused on the client's wants and needs, with continual monitoring for changing circumstances and the support they call for.
You manage the resources entrusted to you. An Aging Life Care Professional helps you understand the care those resources are providing.
When visibility into the client's needs and circumstances would help you support their care more effectively and efficiently.
When aging, illness, or cognitive change creates issues beyond the legal scope, Caring with Grace helps manage the care-related complexities surrounding your client.
Legal planning for an aging or vulnerable client often raises practical questions that extend beyond legal documents:
A personalized perspective and professional assessment of the client's current circumstances, needs, support system, and care environment.
We manage care-related issues and coordinate schedules, providers, and resources outside the legal scope.
We monitor the client's care for changes and recommend adjustments to the care plan as needs evolve.
You manage the legal complexities: counsel and protection, estate planning and proper documents, guardianship if required. We create a concierge care plan that addresses health, safety, living arrangements, medical care, and family support, and we monitor it as needs change.
When the legal plan depends on care decisions: evaluating whether the current living environment remains appropriate, adjusting the medical team and plan, or filling identified gaps in care and living.
Are you concerned about what happens when the patient leaves your office? Caring with Grace helps bridge the space between medical recommendations and the realities of the patient's daily life.
A thoughtful medical plan can become difficult to implement when a patient is also dealing with cognitive change, mobility issues, transportation barriers, family dynamics, multiple providers, or an increasingly complex living environment. That is where care management can help.
Aging Life Care Managers take a holistic, client-centered approach to assessing the home environment, existing support and resources, and family communication, and build a care plan for current and future needs.
We help patients understand your recommendations, coordinate next steps, identify barriers to implementation, and arrange follow-up appointments and transportation.
We adapt the care plan to address improvements and new challenges alike. When new medications are considered or prescribed, we put a plan in place to watch for side effects, and when authorized, we communicate relevant changes and concerns to the appropriate providers.
We provide the support and services that allow for follow-through on the medical plan and preserve the patient's independence. We help families navigate the non-medical issues surrounding the patient's health so the medical team can stay focused on clinical care.
When there is concern that orders are not being followed up on or medications are not being taken as prescribed, or when health and safety concerns exist outside the office.
Caring with Grace is not a home care agency. We provide professional care management that complements the hands-on support your team provides in the home. With a shared focus on the client, we help create greater continuity of care, more coordinated support, and clearer communication with families and other professionals.
We help the family understand the need, define the goals of in-home care, and find the right fit in scheduling and staffing.
We work to ensure that the client and all involved in their care, such as family members and healthcare providers, are working together and schedules are running smoothly.
We communicate goals, progress, and changing needs to the other professionals and family members involved in care decisions.
Your team provides hands-on care in the home: companionship, regularly scheduled support, safety, and assistance. We provide care planning, medical coordination, care transitions, and family communication. We can also serve as a local professional contact for distant families, help navigate challenging family dynamics, and ease the adjustment to care in the home.
When your client is struggling to adjust to help in the home, or needs support with family dynamics, medication management, or getting to medical appointments.
Senior living communities provide an essential foundation of care, safety, and connection. Caring with Grace adds a layer of individualized advocacy, coordination, and professional care management when a resident's situation requires more. We bridge the gaps among the resident, the family, the community, and the other professionals involved, so that all of them can work together as one.
Assessing the appropriate level of care is key to a successful transition. Complex medical needs, social engagement, and proximity to the medical team or family are all important considerations when choosing a community.
We coordinate needed care within the community and beyond, including appointments with physicians and specialists as healthcare needs change.
We monitor for gaps and changes in client needs, staffing, and other circumstances, and provide communication support among the resident, family, and community when needed.
The community provides the resident's daily care, support, services, safety, and connection. We provide individualized assessment, advocacy, medical coordination, and family communication, keeping distant or overwhelmed families updated and offering a consistent local presence for residents without nearby support.
When a resident or family would benefit from a trusted professional who can ease the stress of transitioning to a care community, serve as a local contact for distant family members, and build an ongoing, collaborative relationship with your team.
